AC Humidity Sensing Properties of Mesoporous K2CO3-SiO2 Composite Materials

The mesoporous silica SBA-15 and mesoporous K2CO3-SiO2 composite material were synthesized. Characterization of microstructure and morphology of materials indicated that the composite material had saved the porous framework of mesoporous silica SBA-15. Humidity sensing properties of different invers...
